If you aren't sure whether or not this program will be useful to you, please
read the tsnip.doc file right through. There are a *lot* of situations where
this program can be helpful, and I've made it as flexible as possible.

Possible uses:

    - importing text from a terminal program, CLI window, or really any
      window into any word-processor/text-editor
    - taking commands, parts of commands, one or more filenames etc from
      the screen and feeding them back as new input
        - this can be within a terminal program: a filename to download,
          a Unix command someone else is executing, a number you want
          to re-dial but don't have bound to a function key
        - from within a CLI you can re-execute a command you gave in that
          or in another CLI
        - you can snip multiple filenames from a directory listing and
          apply some command to them, eg delete, less, or copy
    - keeping a record of what comes up on your screen by sending output
      to a file or the printer (or the clipboard or a pipe)
        - something someone says in an on-line conversation
        - an e-mail address, short example program or anything else
          you want to quickly and efficiently download without having to
          edit it
        - program output that you want to remember without typing it in
          again, or re-running the program (eg compiler errors)

NEW for users of Workbench 1.3:

    - by sending text to the SPEAK: device you can have your computer read
      the contents of your screen to you. This may prove to be a valuable
      aid to the visually impaired, and I find it quite handy too.

Good points:

    - works with any window, whether opened by the console device or not
    - flexible output options; output destination can be changed at any time
    - source is included so you can customize to your heart's content
    - works with any 8 x 8 font; you can use the supplied TSnipGen program
      to create a font definition file for TSnip to use

And now, brings ancient mainframe editors into the modern era! Amiga users
can log on to a mainframe and use the mouse to control the cursor position
within vi and emacs. Again, see TSnip.doc for details.
